I know sometimes you tend to get down on yourself
I do too
And I know sometimes it feels like you can't ask for help
I know we haven't always seen eye to eye
But I was dreamin of a time when we might
And I'm glad that it came when I'm still young
God willing, you both still have plenty of time
Dad, I'm sorry for the past and the ways
That I've made you sad, sorry for the stress
I just wanted to express that I just
Want to make you proud, and to make you laugh
And I know in some ways that your just like me
Cause I'm just like you, I don't talk about shit
I just buzz right through, stay hush like you
Till the frustration's too much to take in, what must I do?
Mom, I'm sorry for the ways I abused your trust
Though I never meant to I abused your love
Dealin with my own problems, never answering phone calls
Didn't understand
All you really wanted was, to hear my voice
I just didn't want to lie and say I'm doin alright
Didn't want to cry or ruin your night
Thought I'd be fine, get through another night
Man I do it all the time, have another drink
Write another rhyme, do another line
Blacked out, cracked out, what a damn life
Say I'd never do it not another damn time, but
I know sometimes you tend to get down on yourself
I do too
And I know sometimes it feels like you can't ask for help
I do too
But one day, you'll understand me
I'll understand your life and you'll understand mine
One day, you'll understand why
I just hope that day comes when we're both still alive
You know you're killin yourself and our parents right?
When you use, man, you become a parasite
Can't find a way out and we're trapped watchin it play out
Wishin you would come inside and we could hang out
But you stay out and you stay up, I call, you hang up
Why all the games I just want you to hang up
That wack shit, that smack shit, that tarry and black shit
I can't f*ckin stand that my brother's on that shit
I know that you think we're the reason this happened
But please can you stop using needles like that, man
I've seen em in trashcans, that demon, that black sand
I've seen you seize up and stop breathin, that happened
Three f*ckin years ago, luckily still breathin though
Daddy up stressin, Mommy on a sleeping pill
How you think this even chill? How the f*ck you think they deal?
Like you don't even think it's real, do you?
Do you?
I know growin up, wasn't always your best friend
And I know I made you feel like you were less than
Just couldn't cope with stress and depression
But I'd do anything for you no question
And I hope we can grow together, wanna get to know you better
Spend more time alone together, better late than never
Cuz I know one day we'll both regret it if we don't
Wrote this for you a while ago, here it go
I know sometimes you tend to get down on yourself
I do too
And I know sometimes it feels like you can't ask for help
I do too
And I know right now it feels like you're goin through hell
I do too
But one day you'll understand me
They'll understand you and you'll understand too
Like I do
Like I do
Like I do
Like I do
Like I do
I know sometimes you tend to get down on yourself
I do too
And I know sometimes it feels like you can't ask for help
That's not true
